FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Vagabond Shoemakers MARTA series generally fits consistently with standard UK sizing.
Can I wear these for long periods?
While designed for comfort, they are heels and are best suited for standard workdays or events rather than all-day strenuous walking.
What is the best way to clean the leather?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and use appropriate leather care products for deep cleaning or conditioning.
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The MARTA series has a standard fit. If you have particularly wide feet, you may find the leather takes slightly longer to stretch to your preferred comfort level.
Can I get the MARTA series in other colors?
The MARTA series featured here is specifically designed in a classic black colorway for versatility.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too stiff during the first wear
Leather shoes often require a 'break-in' period. Wear them for short durations indoors with thick socks to gently stretch the material.
Surface scuffs appearing on the leather
Use a high-quality black leather polish or cream to buff out minor scuffs and restore the uniform finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your MARTA pumps remain in peak condition, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Use a shoe horn to prevent damage to the heel counter when putting them on. Since these are made from genuine leather, it is recommended to apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dust or debris after each use. If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from artificial heat sources like radiators to maintain the integrity of the leather.
